 BAND/SONG: RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS - "CABRON"
 (Based on live version from the Johnothan Ross show)
 ALBUM: "BY THE WAY" (2002)

 Tabbed by: Richey Slash (sweetchild666@msn.com)


Ok, I worked this song out from the Chili Pepper's appearance on the
Friday Night show with Johnothan Ross. I'm not sure that it's 100%
correct but what the hell, it's close enough, and there ain't any
others anywhere on the net.

[TAB]

Notes
-----
This song is played with a capo on the 7th fret, so this tab is written
as if fret 7 were fret 0, (eg. -2- on tab = -9- on guitar). The rhythm
isn't printed exactly because, well to be honest, I couldn't be bothered
so just listen to the ecording and you'll pick it up.

[ORDER OF PLAY]
Thats about it for the actual tab for this song, the rest of it is just
those parts repeated in the following order (with the lyrics too becuase
I'm such a nice guy):

...following on from the above tab...
[verse]  I'll come around and make peace, get down have a barbeque
	 Let's keep the moon awake and do electric boogiloo
[bridge] I'm small but I'm strong, you see I'm just like you
	 If you only knew, that I'm just like you
	 All the world would take a cue from anything you do
	 If you only knew, that they're just like you
[chorus] I don't wanna fight I wanna get along with you,
	 This time of night's for snging songs about the local news
	 Cabron, cabron... Cabron, cabron
[solo]   (What else can I do, if you want me to,
	  'Cause I'm just like you, if you only knew)
[chorus] Cabron, cabron... Cabron, cabron...
	 Cabron, cabron... Cabron, cabron...

[END OF TAB]

[NOTES]
Just a few notes about the song... on the album version of this song there
is a slide guitar solo with some vocals over the top (indicated above by
[solo], with lyrics in parenthesis), but on the live version (on the Rossy
show) this was replaced by John playing the chorus 4 times with no vocals,
followed by the last chorus and then finishing on a G chord.

Any corrections/comments/anything else you care to send me is greatly
appreciated (richey_slash@msn.com) unless it is totally un-related and/or
un-calledfor, in which case it will be printed off, made into paper aeroplanes
and used to drop bombs on your house. Peace, love and empathy. Richey Slash.
